I am extremely pleased with my experience with Tutor Hester. Despite being nervous at first, her patience and encouragement have created a positive learning atmosphere for me. I definitely recommend her as your English tutor without hesitation!!

First of all, I sincerely thank Hester. I have been taking her course for about a year, and from the initial nervousness to the natural sharing, I have truly gained a lot under her guidance. Learning a foreign language not only requires inputting knowledge, but also outputting what you have learned. Fortunately, I met Hester and not only did I receive excellent English correction courses, but we also discussed our perspectives about society and culture . We often have similar perspectives, which makes me very excited and I am very willing to share them in English. This greatly promotes my enthusiasm for English learning. I have good English friends around me, but none of them can compare to directly communicating with an English native speaker to correct my English writing, speaking, reading, and listening skills. Hester is a very gentle, elegant and cute teacher. We would laugh together in class, and at that moment, I felt the beauty of learning another language.

The second time is not as nervous as the first time. I can express myself better .I still made some mistakes,and the teacher patiently pointed out. The teacher was very kind and had a good time communicating with her. I won't be afraid to express myself in English. I hope my oral English will be better and better.

The teacher is very kind and patient. It was my first class and I was very nervous, but the teacher would guide me slowly. And the teacher gently pointed out the wrong pronunciation. I hope I can continue to learn from the teacher.
